A SAFER Thursday lunch seminar with Per Hurtig: The Next Generation of Speed Cameras

Date
17 December 2026 11:30-12:45
Place
SAFER, Lindholmen Innovation District, Kuggen, Lindholmsplatsen 1 or online

Automated speed enforcement has been one of the most successful road safety measures in Sweden, contributing to lower speeds and fewer fatalities and serious injuries. In this seminar, Per Hurtig, Road Safety Investigation Leader at the Swedish Transport Administration, will present the next generation of Automated Traffic Safety Control (ATK) cameras and their role in future road safety work.

The seminar will provide insights into the new technology now being introduced, including its capabilities, implementation, and expected contribution to safer roads. Beyond the technical aspects, the discussion will address the role of speed management in the Safe System approach and how automated enforcement can support compliance with speed limits and reduce crash risks.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how one of Sweden's most important road safety interventions continues to evolve and what opportunities and challenges lie ahead for automated traffic safety control.

Please note that Per will join online!
